"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

It's cause deep down, you know that you aint waf. The reason you feel that way is two-fold, You are not using your mind in the proper, human manner, and humans are "pack animals". We need a social life.

Give thanks to Andrew Carnegie, and use your library's INTERLIBRARY BOOK LOAN system, to order and and read the following books: THE PSYCHOLOGY OF SELF ESTEEM, HONORING THE SELF, THE SIX PILLARS OF SELF ESTEEM, all by Nathaniel Branden. Also read Ayn Rand's THE VIRTUE OF SELFISHNESS, PHILOSOPHY, WHO NEEDS IT?, THE OBJECTIVIST EPISTOLMOLOGY, and THE VOICE OF REASON. Her novels are a pita to read, except maybe for ANTHEM, but Harvey Binswaner's THE AYN RAND LEXICON will guide you to the parts of her novels that are waf. Read anything by the objectivist paragon, David Kelly. Leonard Piekoff is good, too. So is Barbara Branden, Nat's ex-wife. Google for these people.

Go visit people in nursing homes. Volunteer at the homeless mission and the VA hospital. Coach some kids at pickup ball games. Be a "Big Brother" to 1 or more kids, ( but cover your ass about claims of molestation, by never being alone with them!) In order to HAVE a friend, you first have to BE a friend, and not just to 1 person, either!
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

People who suffer from boredom, don't know how to use their brain. So instead they let the tv or computer use their brain.

the objectivist philosophy is what the human mind properly "settles upon'. the others are Platonic in nature, Objectivism is the only one that is Aristotlean. Plato was silly enough to believe in things that we can't perceive. Aristotle was smart enough to say "so what? if we cant even percieve them, why waster our time using such things as guides to a proper life?"
 

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

when you're truly a genius, there's lots more to you than can be shown on a forum, in 20 posts a day, for a year or so, dude. No brag, just fact.

not me, I never tire of teaching the uninformed. Jealous men call what I do "trolling", cause they WISH that they had 10% as much knowledge and ability as I have.
